Keralis was the ultimate hopeless romantic. Everyone on Hermitcraft knew it; everyone could see it. He had a way of turning even the simplest conversation into a flirty banter, and no one was safe from his charming remarks. Some Hermits even flirted back, which only fueled his enthusiasm. But there was one person who Keralis seemed especially drawn to, someone he doted on and would go out of his way to help - especially when it came to gently nudging him toward getting a proper night's rest. That person was Xisuma, who, despite Keralis's endless hints and affectionate gestures, was utterly oblivious.

The Hermits shared a bond of trust and camaraderie, but there was one thing that had remained a mystery-Xisuma's appearance beneath his ever-present space suit. He had never once removed his helmet or armor in front of anyone. The curiosity surrounding it grew over time, with whispers of what lay under the suit. No one was more intrigued, or concerned, than Keralis. Keralis had always been the observant one, noticing the subtle signs that something wasn't quite right. Xisuma's movements were stiff, and the suit, though impressive, looked increasingly worn. The helmet, especially, appeared to be in desperate need of repairs, and the weight of the armor surely took a toll on his body. Keralis couldn't help but worry. Staying in that suit for extended periods couldn't be healthy, no matter how resilient Xisuma was. The pressure of the heavy armor and the way the helmet seemed to restrict his movements only added to his concern. Despite the mystery, Keralis never pressed. He respected Xisuma's privacy, knowing that trust was sacred among the Hermits. But that didn't stop him from wondering: What if there was more to the story? What if Xisuma wasn't just hiding his appearance, but something deeper-something personal? The thought nagged at Keralis. The space suit was an enigma, and Xisuma's insistence on wearing it at all times only fueled his curiosity. What would it take to get Xisuma to take it off, even just for a moment? He wasn't sure, but one thing was clear: Keralis would do whatever he could to ensure Xisuma wasn't silently struggling in that suit, even if it meant confronting the one mystery he couldn't quite solve. art is not mine

Hello! Welcome to my hermitcraft oneshot book. Most of these were written around season 7, and I haven't kept up with season 8, so more recent uploads will just use the characters not the hermitcraft plot. -no smut -some shipping -I'm opening up requests again but I might not do them depending- I'm quite busy! I might not get to your request! Sorry but sometimes that's just what I have to do! -tw where needed but sometimes not, read at your own discretion

Hermitcraft oneshots :) I SWEAR the later chapters are better :,) !Requests are closed! (I haven't been writing a lot lately... :( To be clear I have no idea what I'm doing T-T Disclaimer: Most chapters are Grian-centric. But there are chapters about other hermits :D Disclaimer 2: Also past Hermitcraft members are mentioned because earlier chapters were written before they left. I'm not going to adjust it because I'm lazy :P

WARNING: this is pretty cringy sbhsbhs and i don't think i'll continue writing this again :/ © 𝟤𝟢𝟣𝟫

Keralis has always loved the sea, which is why he chose to work at the aquarium-a place where he could be surrounded by the beauty of marine life every day. But there's something strange about his connection with the creatures here. Whether it's the gentle glide of an axolotl or the steady pulse of a guardian's eye following his every move, the animals seem inexplicably drawn to him. They don't just respond to his presence; they seek it out, yearning for his attention in ways that baffle his coworkers. One day, Keralis notices an unusual commotion in one of the tanks. A guardian named XB and an axolotl named X are locked in what appears to be an intense standoff-not over territory or food, but over him. Whenever he approaches, they push and jostle for his attention, flashing their colors and stirring up the water in a clear competition. At first, he finds it amusing, but as the rivalry escalates, he begins to wonder: Why do the sea creatures seem so fixated on him? Is it just his natural charm, or is there something deeper-something he has yet to uncover about himself and the bond he shares with the ocean? As Keralis tries to navigate his increasingly chaotic workdays, he starts to notice other odd occurrences-strange symbols appearing in the water, the feeling of unseen eyes watching him, and an undeniable pull toward the depths of the aquarium's largest tank. The more he tries to brush it off, the stronger the connection becomes. Could it be possible that he was meant for more than just caring for these creatures? Could the sea be calling him home? Little does he know, the answers lie beneath the surface, waiting for him to take the plunge.

Xisuma was desperate. His server was in chaos, and the moon loomed larger each night. In a last-ditch effort, he sought help from the Watchers. They offered a solution, but at a steep price. Every few months, Xisuma had to endure "the Pit," a brutal arena where Watchers fought each other to the death. They didn't transform him into one of their own, but the horrors he witnessed there were more than enough. Time seemed to stand still during these fights, as if the universe itself recoiled from the violence. Blood stained the ground, and the Watchers' screams echoed in his mind long after the battles ended. The once-unflappable Xisuma grew increasingly nauseous at the sight of blood, a stark contrast to his former self. His players began to notice the change-he roamed the server at night, avoiding the daylight as if it burned him. One night, during another grim visit to the Pit, Xisuma's heart froze. Among the combatants, he saw his brother, fighting desperately. Bound by the Watchers' rules, Xisuma couldn't intervene as his brother was brutally beaten. Left barely alive, his brother was handed over to Xisuma, who carried him home, his mind reeling with horror and guilt. But something was different this time. As Xisuma trudged back, burdened by his brother's limp form, he sensed he was not alone. Shadows flitted at the edge of his vision, and a chill ran down his spine. Someone was following him, and the oppressive feeling of dread grew with each step. He knew he had to uncover the identity of his pursuer, even if it meant delving deeper into the darkness that was slowly consuming him and his world.

Impulse is a demon. A demon with morals. Weird, huh? He's got one last chance before his soul is destroyed and scattered across the universe. All he has to do is make a deal with a mortal, take their soul, and return to Hades. It's simple, according to his manager, who even remarks that it hopes Impulse gets summoned by a moron. Turns out, that "moron" is the one and only Scar Goodtimes, who just wanted to see what a summoning circle actually did. Grian and Skizz find out, and Impulse gets roped into a deal he knows he can't keep for the sake of his morals and Scar's wellbeing. Everything goes to the Nether from there. === All chapter titles are lyrics from Demons by Imagine Dragons These stories are a collection of somewhat connected oneshots that originated in my Oneshot book. I told the peeps over there that, once I hit more than 3 chapters of any story, I would copy them over to their own book so they didn't clutter the oneshots book. That's what happened with this story: I have too many ideas, so I copied them into this one. Chapter summaries will appear at the beginning of each chapter, along with trigger warnings. Pay attention to those!!! Cross-posted to AO3 (user: JadedSundragon)
